Racquetball

What can racquetball do for you?

• Burn More Calories, Melt Fat: a 135 lb woman burns upwards of 250 calories playing racquetball for 30 minutes. Men burn more. Intense games can easily burn upwards of 400 calories every half hour.

• Improve Hand-To-Eye Coordination and Agility: Proprioception is enhanced while improving your agility and reaction time. Racquetball conditions your body to move with power and greater economy of motion.

• Build Functional Strength and Flatten Your Stomach: The game requires you to move across three dimensions which develops your core musculature. And because racquetball involves plenty of trunk rotation, it’s a killer on love handles.

• Reduce Stress and Tension: There’s nothing like bashing a little ball against a wall to get your aggression out. After a good game of racquetball you’ll feel more relaxed and stress free.

• Shape Your Thighs: All the lateral, side-to-side movement sculpts sleek thighs in ways machines just can’t.

• Cross-Training:  Adding racquetball to your workouts will challenge your body in fresh ways and rejuvenate your results. The non-linear movement patterns you perform throughout a game can improve your timing and performance in practically any other sport.

• Socialize while getting a great workout: What’s better than having fun with friends and getting in shape at the same time? Racquetball is easy to learn and a sport for almost any age or ability level. You don’t need experience to start enjoying the benefits of playing from the moment you step on the court – just call up a buddy and away you go.
